Alright, minus twenty gold for the meal, and I've introduced myself to our nascent protagonist.

Carver watched the irritated half-elf storm off and shook his head sadly. If the man wanted to be surly, that was his own business; at least there hadn't been a confrontation.
He removed the thirty-five coins from his (now even lighter) coinpurse and slid it across the counter to the barkeep. "A hot meal, then, for the gnome." The barkeep pocketed the money and barked an order to a barmaid. Carver leaned in closer to the man then, still smiling with his mouth, if not with his eyes. "Yes, I will take care of any trouble. And perhaps, another time, you and I may have a discussion about your business practices, and you will not like how I do that."
This done, Carver turned and crossed the crowded room back to where the gnome was seated, alongside three others. One was the bearded man that the gnome had been speaking with, while the other two, a muscular looking young man and a very... shapely young woman seemed to be either arguing or flirting. Carver furrowed his brow at the girl. Though looking at her appealed to his baser urges, the higher part of his mind found something undisputably off about her. This was someone who did not know the love of the sun.
He sat down next to them and patted the gnome on the back. "Food on its way, my diminutive friend." Just then, a barmaid set a sizeable bowl of stew in front of the gnome and was quickly off.
He smiled at the others and nodded his head. "A fine day, friends. Hope you have a seat for another."

Alight, sure. Dinner's on the second poorest guy here. Why not.
... One of you may have to buy me my share of trail mix.
Now now...

@Kronshi, GM ruling on my attempt to barter with the barkeep?
I return!
Who's in the train station group, again, before I make my IC post? I'll probably be messaging you to see what Chris picks up from your characters.

I'm interested in this, mostly because I thirst for Bloodborne but have no PS4 and this seems like it might ease the pain.
Will have to think about my character.

Dear lord, don't all of you go having problems at once. :p
Momma Carver can only put out one fire a post.

Carver stepped beside the half-elf and put a hand on his shoulder, smiling at the barkeeper. "No need to ruin this good day with... regrettable actions, friends. What do we say to thirty gold, and I'll put up half of it... provided you share some with our new friends, of course." It was obvious so far that the barkeep was a cheat and a swindler, and in another time Carver would have loved to have words with him on the subject. However, not on such a fine day, in so crowded a place, with friends in need of care nearby. The priority right now was diffusing the situation.
"How much for something hot for my diminutive friend, good man?" He gestured back to the gnome sitting nearby, who looked to be sniffing at a bearded stranger. The man didn't seem offended by this, so that was good. Carver jingled his coin purse and was disheartened by its lightness - a life of charity had taken a toll on his funds, it seemed. He'd need to find some form of income soon, but that could wait.

Don't make her the daughter! I see much incest in the future!
Eh, it's all relative.
...I'll see myself out.
When the paladin in ten tons of solid steel tells you to eat your brussel sprouts, you eat your brussel sprouts.
I'm feeling son, really, mostly because as the one trying to get a bunch of strangers together to go adventuring, I feel like you're the de facto protagonist at the moment. Helps that you're just heading off to see the world for yourself.
Ooh, Ooh, what am I? :D
